Re: PESO Mr & Ms Finch

Yes a chaffinch. In dutch it's simply called vink which would
translate to finch, my mistake. If the chiffchaff (tjiftjaf in dutch)
is a Mrs, I don't know...

Thanks.  I was photographing a cormorant in the shade with an all manual lens 
when I saw him.  I did my best to snap a couple of shots in flight, but they 
were several stops over exposed and I'm afraid that the K-5 isn't nearly as 
good with over exposed photos as with underexposed.

Re: APOD: Today's Astronomy Picture of the Day

[Walter Hamler]

Thanks, Bob.  I find it amazing that within my lifetime I have seen us
go from barely flying jets and knowing nothing about the solar system
other than rudimentary knowledge, to cataloging thousands of planets
around other stars in our galactic neighborhood. Truly exciting times
for us all!

Absolutely stunning!

The night time shots are great and those featuring the ship (eg. 29, 32)
have that early 'polar expedition' feel - like some of Frank Hurley's
photos on the Shackleton expedition.

But my absolute favourite has to be 19.  The combination of diffused
light and shadow is simply superb.

There is a long way to ISO 51200 still and I bet that that ISO alone can hide

Going to sit this one out. Nice captures, very K-5ish too :)
My main enablement also was the bundle of K-5/DFA100 and my first pictures were 
also of female close relatives, our cat and winter. Weird and funny feeling.

Starting with the main page, click "upcoming events" near the lower
right.  Then find the Nature Photography Weekend.  The page is
different than the one Mark linked.
http://grandfather.com/events/?event_id=293

It does say April 1st.

I'm going to skip it this year.  The dread of driving that far has
outweighed the desire to be there.  But the motel is open for weary
Noo Yawkers and Bahstonians.

The second is too "processed" and almost plasticky, for me.

ah, but the 18th is great too. It has a character all of its own. A couple
of weeks ago the film we studied was set in the 18th - 'J'ai pas sommeil" by
Claire Denis. Fantastic film.

Thanks Ann, BobS, Tim, Dave, Christine, Rick and BobW.

The picture was taken in an alley beside the Presidents Office in Budapest, so 
they were watching us closely. One hour later the alley was closed for the 
public

You are right about the cropping Ann. I even had to cut the window on the right 
for balance.

I´m not sure if I see a lamp with cameras or an alien cowboy with two ray guns,

Fantastic stuff Jostein.

Suppose you just have to carry on taking great photos when you've got
a 645D stuck to your face...

Particularly love the schooner one with the mountains recessing into
the background. Brilliant.

Fantastic shot! Enjoyed all of them. I'd love to see an osprey take a fish.
I've seen a lot of fish eagles in Ethiopia, but never saw any take a fish.
There are parts of Britain where ospreys can be seen, but they're very rare.

As in beating it about the head to persuade it to let go.  These lads

On the other hand, a bear will try much harder to get a 645D from you
than a full-frame Canon!

I'm going to be constructively critical.

#32 is #1
#34 is #2
#31 is #3
#33 is #4

#1  Nice pose.  Usually a high-contrast shot is left for male subjects, but you 
pulled it off nicely.  Perhaps a reflector on the right to add a bit more 
content to the hair while still maintaining contrast would have been a little 
helpful.

#2  I like the tonality.  You were able to maintain the shadows on her arms to 
some tonal variety -- something many would miss.  (A lot of digital b&w sucks.) 
 Perhaps dodge the eyes a bit.  The whites of her eyes are too gray.  Again, 
you've done a nice job with a high-contrast project.

** If possible I'd like to have a color file of this to see what I could do in 
b&w conversion.

#3  Close-ups like this scare me.  Not her.  Just the idea.  I'd never attempt 
one.  But you did control the reflection off her eyes.  (Many amateurs miss 
those details.)  Well done.

#4  I have to be really hard on this one.  The angle doesn't work.  The 
background and surroundings are cluttered.  But her expression *can* work if 
she has a context -- looking @ something or with some purpose.  This is the 
only bad one of the bunch but even so it's a starting point for future efforts.

Sincerely,

In #18, is that a person or a statue?

"The K-5 feels almost as good in my hand as my MZ-S"
True!
The MZ-S is ergonomically awesome. When walking with it, I can hold it in just 
three fingers (no thumb) - it's just sort of hangin' there. No other camera 
ever felt that good in my hands. But the K-5 i "getting there" - not bad at all.

One of the few times I shot Kodachrome (I've probably done about 6 rolls in my 
life) was when I was going to a Rolling Stones concert in Hamburg, W Germany 
(1982).

I had borrowed a friend's 210mm zoom lens because I just KNEW I was going to be 
way back from the stage.  "Stadium seating" meant: get there early, be close.  
Get there late, be in back.

However - the unusually-warm temperatures that summer had the audience dropping 
out like flies and I just kept shifting forward to fill the gaps.   By the time 
Mick and the boys hit the stage I was in the front row, on a sunny day, with a 
telephoto lens and crisp, sharp slide film.  I can read the engravings on 
Keith's guitar and make out the teeth on his skull ring.  I was pleased.

It's still a bear to scan, though.

Re: GESO - My Svalbard images

[AlunFoto]

Thanks Paul,

I'm working on taking shots like the skis at the door. Shooting just
landscapes all the time is my default state of mind.

Yes, she was a real bugger. Wouldn't take directions either... :-)

Welcome back Boris

[Paul Stenquist]

Welcome back Boris. Good to hear that you are feeling secure. Also nice to hear 
once again of Galia's progress in photography. You have proved to be an 
excellent mentor.

Re: Photo Annual 2011: Uploaded

[Mark Roberts]

I've just uploaded the prototype (beta) version of the 2011 book. I
have ordered a copy from Blurb and should have it within two weeks.

If all goes well I'll have only minor corrections/adjustments to make
and should be able to upload the final version shortly thereafter.

Now that you say it, #31 IS slightly red, I think it works for me but will see 
if a little adjustment is in order. #33 is more of a documentation piece - it 
was a portrait session so I don't think there are going to be any more of those 
full body shots from other shooters.

Available light is something I am more comfortable with so ISOs of 1600 and 
more are my natural habitat. K-5 really shines here - better noise and more 
megapixels means I can retain more details.

Alas this portrait session has led me to feed my LBA - F85 Soft and K50/1.2 are 
in the mail... My wallet weeps but the LBA monster can sleep.

Thanks for comments - Paul Sorenson, Paul Stenquist, Bruce, Steven, Charles, 
Jack.

Being back

[Boris Liberman]

Hello there.

It seems that the hostilities have paused for the time being. I am 
pretty much back to my normal mode of functioning.


I sincerely appreciate everyone's comments and concerns expressed on and 
off the list which in fact quite amazes me - to know that so many people 
do care.


Again, in order to negate even the most remote possibility of the flame, 
I am asking to please leave this message unanswered or at least not 
answered in a way that could provoke the other person to respond in tone.


As a matter of on-topic point, I should say that this weekend Galia and 
I spent about an hour choosing and polishing her best photos over past 3 
years (since she was 6 and shooting with Optio W30). All together 25 
photos were chosen, a JAlbum book ordered and now we're anticipating its 
arrival. In my somewhat biased view, Galia is making steady progress in 
photography as well as in her other activities.


Thanks again for your kind words!

Boris

All extremely well done, Bruce! C&C; #31 appears slightly red and I'm trying to 
decide how well #33 works for me. 
Wonderful lighting!

Jack :)

I think #1 and #3 look pretty nice and relaxed.  Something about the 
tone/angle/pose of #2 really doesn't work for me.  #4, I don't see that much is 
added from including all of that background and it doesn't work for me.
